Such messages are related to problem with ACPI's memory allocation. 
Mentioned bug report is related to ACPI's memory allocation problem.

As I fail to make complete analysis of current problem, I can't decide 
if both problems have common base or not. I assumed my notice may help 
to someone else more skilled not to overlook something already known.

Nor me.

My "see here" doesn't mean "here is explanation and fix" but "here may 
be informations that may (or may not) be related to your problem".

Nothing more, nothing less.

It seems to be language problem. English is not my native language. I 
will try to be more explicit in the future.
